Guest guest Posted July 21, 1999 Report Share Posted July 21, 1999 Namaste, Fear is the primeval subconscious feeling of separation from the source. It manifests in many ways, all to do with bodily attachments. If one is in communion with the source then it is 'Why fear when 'I'am here'. Referring to the 'I'Atma of course. For all is one and then who is to fear and what is there to fear. Love Tony. === Keep on truckin-Chant the Gayatri! "God is formless. In order to merge in the formless God, you have to give up identification with the body." "There is only one Soul and that is God." Sai Baba.

Amazement, or the beauty of strangeness, is more. "There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion." (Francis bacon) This amazement brings a taste for adventure, and like a little child's touching with no fear the fire for the first time, a fear from it is born from pain. From the amazement of our own beauty that we want to touch, and with habit and pain, comes the "other" one, or the "something else", we come to fear. This picture nicely express the amazement i am referring to: http://www.osho.com/zentarot/zen039.jpg As amazement was an entry door into the world of separation it may also be the door out of it. But it's a more delicate path than just killing the fear... Joy, Antoine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 1999 Report Share Posted July 21, 1999 Nice Tony, thanks. I also have found lately that ego as inner child may then project on the return journey back home to Atma, the pains and fears encountered during teh intitial separation and even with own parents as unconditional love is impossible to have flowing all the time. The child learns to weather separation over and over and over - yet fear and defense mechanisms get built. Can I trust Love if it means separation too asks my inner child self?
